Claudia Bauer is a minister in Austria. She plans the money for the EU. This plan is the EU-Budget. Bauer says: The EU needs fewer tasks.
Topics like sport are local tasks. Every single country decides on this alone. The EU does not need staff for this. Bauer demands a smaller EU-Commission. This group focuses on important tasks.
The EU-Budget must shrink a lot. Bauer wants to save money. She wants fewer rules. Austria does not pay more money. Island and Montenegro join the EU soon. Ukraine needs more time.
